Abstract excerpt
The retroviral oncogene p3k (v-p3k) of avian sarcoma virus 16 (ASV16) codes for the catalytic subunit of phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase, p110alpha. The v-P3k protein is oncogenic in vivo and in vitro; its cellular counterpart, c-P3k, lacks oncogenicity. Fusion of viral Gag sequences to the amino terminus of c-P3k activates the transforming potential. Activation can also be achieved by the addition of a...
